This was essentially the product of a discussion with Djoric about the wiki only having articles about Wondertainment toys, and nothing else about the GOI. Shit, they'd have to have a way to deliver those toys, right?

And here we are.

Thanks again to the people who checked this out in chat, namely TwistedGears, Bouncl, Kalinin, Adelia, and anybody else I'm missing. I appreciate it!

Could be a result of an auto-dictation software. Assuming I have his accent right, "end" could sound almost the same as "in," and the people reviewing the transcription got sloppy. It can happen, even in the Foundation.

Remember: humans aren't perfect. Therefore, the Foundation will never run perfectly.

This is novel and well written, but it kind of rubs the the wrong way. I don't know if I like EVERY aspect of a GoI needing to be in some way anomalous. Why can't they have regular truck drivers and shipping routes and schedules? Still, it's well done, so no vote.
